Financial services company SWIFT announced today that it has mitigated four additional capital depositories onto its Target2 Securities, or T2S, network.
The four CSDs, which will start live operations on SWIFT T2S, marks the last four to move to the network since the migration plan first begun in June 2015. The four depositories include those from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Spain’s Iberclear.
